Yellow moon shining like fool's gold
Slipping softly into the sea
Memories how they linger
Guess we weren't strong enough, you and me
Still I look to find a reason
Search my mind for a vision
Hide from the answers as the questions
Burn in my head
Shining like a fool's moon
Shining like a fool's moon
Burning out way too soon
Shining like a fool's moon
I wish I'd known you as a child
I wish I'd known you
When my heart ran wild
Never knew how much
I'd miss those dream-filled days
Shining like a fool's moon
You're shining like a fool's moon
And burning out way too soon, yeah hey
You're shining like a fool's moon
And when all is said and done
My loneliness has just begun
But you make it look so easy
Never winning but never caring if you lose
Shining like a fool's moon
Shining like a fool's moon
Burning out way too soon
Shining like a fool's moon
